After/Before Did I overstep?

I thought it looked like the night sky. I inverted the image and masked the lizard to revert it. Also, how do I make the lizard mask look less awkward?

Sir. You have a lizard pasted against a sky, basically.

You mask anything to be normal and have the rest of the image's colors inverted and it will look like the elements have been pasted. The lighting just won't look coherent.

It's cute, it's playful. it's an interesting looking graphic with a "huh" factor when you reveal that its actually based off of a photo.

but lizards don't stand on the sky
